    only thing i don't like is the wheels. it needs real chrome reverse or something like radirs or supremes or best skylark wires to get the full feel. the car itself is beautiful. lots of work and well done and well designed to begin with. NICE!!!...ken....
     
  3. Fordnutz;he brought it out to the local cruz spot one nite,
    ......dam!!......it's purty!! musta told Barry how much i loved it...20....maybe 30 times!! [​IMG]
     
  4. Barry just emailed me some details. Chopped 3 inches, 49 ford 4-door roof piecut to fit, pancaked, drip rails removed. Rear quarters lengthened 13 inches. 53 ford front wheel wells added to rear. Front fenders wedge sectioned in front and lengthened. Scoops added to front of rear quarters, quarters extended down. Hood shortened and pancaked. Frenched headlites and new grille surround with matching rear one. About 1500 hours in the body modifications. Amazing amount of work. His 53 pickup will be wilder.

    Very cool. Not often one see sixties-style bodymods like that. Bill Cushenberry would be proud (if its not a ton of bondo that is.. [​IMG] )
